Your library is here to help!

The Monroe County Library System provides in-library as well as remote access to numerous business-related databases. From the library’s homepage at mymcls.com hover over the Research tab and then click Online Resources from the menu. Scroll down to the Business and Law category to find a list of business databases subscribed to by the library. Reference staff at the Bedford Branch Library are available to help users navigate the products.

Using these databases from home requires a password. All passwords are located in our Online Resources Brochure, which is available at any of our 16 branches. You can also call your local library for more information.
